I was once in a tsunami when I was a little girl. It was frightening, and very loud. The town I lived in, on the edge of the Pacific Ocean on Vancouver Island, was devastated. The tsunami went through the Pacific Ocean.

We can only pray for the people in Japan. It would seem the ring of fire area is acting up -- first New Zealand and now Japan.

the stretched crystal forms that become objects and then relationships and then communities and then infrastructure are so strong and then so fragile. so very vulnerable japan..... oh so much fear and sadness there. i cannot beleieve the sudden almost capricious destruction. i am holding them in my heart along with the new zealanders and the haitians. steven
